This analysis about the HIV Prevalence and the Correlation between TB and HIV Mortality used the data provided by the GRAPH COURSES as part of the RMASTER CLASS final project. Data is sourced from the Gapminder Foundation.

The Gapminder Foundation is a non-profit venture registered in Stockholm, Sweden, that promotes sustainable global development and achievement of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals by increased use and understanding of statistics and other information about social, economic, and environmental development at local, national, and global levels.

Gapminder was founded in 2005 by Ola Rosling, Anna Rosling Rönnlund, and Hans Rosling. The name Gapminder was derived from the “Mind the Gap” warning messages on the London Underground.

The data used for this analysis is limited from 2000 to 2011 to allow joining of the HIV deaths and TB deaths datasets. Whereas the HIV data is available for the years before 1990 and ended in 2011, the TB data is only from the year 2000 onwards.

It is also worth noting that the HIV related deaths data used are the actual annual deaths reported, while the TB deaths data is based on the annual estimates of TB deaths, not on actual deaths.
